It's Time...New Suncoast GMAX-6 Kit (Now With Video)

Got it back. Can't really tell if it Shifts / Drives Different. Kinda Feels like a 1/2 way Blend of Regular Mode and Tow Haul.

Shifting is all Funky now, but by the Time I got Home, it's Smoothing Out.

Cost was LESS than they Quoted. Was only $11xx Installed. I almost Fell Over when he Said how much it was, I was Shocked.

Yea they will feel funky for a little bit. When it learns good give it a good WOT run and you feel them click off...

That's what I paid for my labor. Good deal :thumbsup:
 
I'm so Glad I went to this Place now. The other Shop that I was gonna Use, that I've Used 2x already, Quoted me $2600 for the Install....I Guess they don't Give Returning Customer Discounts.

That's about the average cost of the kit..:eek:
 
Yep, when I First went there Last Year, they Told me $1680, then when I went back a Month or so ago, they Told me $2600.
 
Haha, this thing is a lil Tricky to Drive in the Rain now. Def. can't get into it anywhere near as much as I could before.

It's really Smoothing out now and getting very Nice.

I tried to Lay into it Yesterday, and got a REALLY Hard 2-3 Shift, so I guess it's still got some Learning to do before I can try that again.

That shift and the 4-5 gave me issues for about a week.

I really wanna Add some more Power now, but I have no Clue where to Start with my EFI.

Did Nick not include a big tune? If not, I would start with the 425RWHP tune in the library.
 
Yea, he did. I Asked him to give me something that is like the PPE Level 6 I had.

Don't get me wrong, it's an awesome Tune, but now that I got the Trans Built, I can Throw some more Power at it...or atleast take out some DeFuel or Torque Management, but I don't know how.

I just a new TCM tune in today that I wrote.

I like it, feels strong. I'll send you copy if you'd like.

As far as defuel, that's a very particular thing that I haven't figured out. The TCM tune I did raises the shifts to 3500 and raises the desired torque levels.

James,
So how is it now that its smoothed out?
Click to expand...

It's good. Drives (Feels) like Stock.

...still pretty Tricky to Drive it in the Rain. Now I See what People Mean about a tight Converter. It doesn't Bother me though. I know the Power is being Transferred with it being so Tight.
 
Here's a Vid of the Tranny Stock First...then Built Second. Does it Look like it's Holding the Power now, and not Slipping?
